i've just sent him the Email, i bet he thinks i'm a complete pain in the bum.... because you wouldn't need any of this with a year old Jazz :)

the same will go for the other Evo too..... the 530HP one, yes i feel much better now. :cool:
 
Cool be careful of these types of garages in west Yorkshire. Expect urdu to be your language of negotiation.

also please take an Evo specialist and not Micks mechanics with you. A specialist will spot more relevant issues in 10 mins than a generic will all day.

Stripes were optional. I'm sure dessimpson will be along soon, he knows a fair bit about TME's and their respective options.

it's not a TME, this one is missing the EVO 6 sticker on the boot, it only costs 6 quid..................... but let's see if he allows an inspection;)

the guy with a 550HP EVO welcomes an inspection, it's on the ramps right now at the MG Garage, he's getting the underside photographed............. my main concern is the engine/clutch etc, because the rest is either new or rebuilt.... the engine is too, but this area bothers me.

it's so damned hard to tell if these guys are b******** you and to be frank i cant take much more of this rubbish, it's a constant worry, i'll give to the end of next week and if i'm still not sure i'll go for the Honda Type R

i've already got the Finance quote for it, i went back to Honda today, it's just waiting for me to sign, it'll take 3 months to get the car, but lets give this Evo Merry go round one more week............ thank God i'm at work tomorrow

Take a look at this

i've viewed that many times, but it's too far away to take a look, esp if it's a real dog.

a white car with overexposed photos, it hides all the paint faults i've learnt that with 4Star, finally he's modded the engine, a silly blow off valve and a boost controller.

is it worth paying £100 to get the car inspected while i remain at home waiting, not if i have grave doubts already. i'll only get an Evo inspected up North if i'm sure it's worth it

this i've had for ages, it's a strong outsider, but he doesn't talk much..... it's done only 24 000
he is not an Evo Nutjob, he'e the quiet serious type...doesn't suffer fools

According to the log book it's gone 3 years without a service. 5 services in the past 7 years. With a car that age (no matter the mileage) I'd expect that book to be almost full of stamps.

As for the stripes on the TME. They were an option on the red ones (probably about 95% will come with them). If it was specced with stripes then the door handles will be black and the upper part of the door (around the window) will be red. If it wasn't then the handles will be red and the door uppers will be black.

The £29k car was sold for £20k last year. Wynfords have put a £9k mark-up on it.

it's old it's 2nd hand, ok it might be perfect but it's still not new, i'd buy it for 20K easy.

if it has a 9k mark-up they'll never let it drop it that far again, it'll only go for about 27k.
 
i've just received a respray quote for that Evo, it's £5500 and about the same from another yesterday, you can forget that straight away.

worth mentioning though.
